10 things to remind yourself on a daily basis

The purpose of living is to make the best of what a human
being is capable of doing that can give glory to his Creator. It is to
harmonize with nature, to be productive in a positive way, and a source of a
new abundance and light to be readily passed on to another. Life should be the
links between simplicity and constructive functionalism.

The secret of life is through balance, and moderation best
supports it. From eating to drinking, lifestyle, work, leisure, and so on and
so forth, balance and equilibrium play a very significant role for a particular
sphere of activity’s continuous progression. Imbalance is the great spoiler--the
source of all the negative things it can potentially impact upon its host.

Every day (wherever you are and whatever life it is you’re
living) is a constant grind for such a chance to remind yourself of what you can
do to make it all better for you. I said “every day,” on a daily basis, that
is, because a poor memory is often the case why you sometimes do the things
you’re not supposed to. The following are, in my own opinion, 10 things you need
to remind your own self each passing day to make the best of your life:

You don’t own anything, everything else is just
borrowed. From day one of your life, everything else became possible because it
was provided to you. The air that you breathe, sunlight, water, food,
everything, even your own talent or skills, are all borrowed. And since these
are all borrowed, you need to take good care of them and to put them in good
use.

You’re not alone. If you’re feeling happy right
now, some people are also feeling the same way. If you’re feeling sad right
now, some people are feeling sad as you do. You are not alone. No matter how
hard you’ve gone through in life, somebody else just did. So don’t feel too bad
about yourself when things aren’t going well your way because somebody else out
there may have just experienced something worse than you are.

Simplicity
is beauty. The most beautiful thing is the one that is natural and simple. You
can see it everywhere in nature. Nature is the best depiction of beauty:
natural, simple, and pure. The same as true with life enmeshed with the
simplicity of living making it all the more beautiful and natural.

Inspiration multiplies inspiration. You need to
surround yourself with what can inspire you. This way, you will not only be
inspired, but a source of inspiration to others.

Live to love, love to live. As simple as that, yet
as hard to do: You have to live to love and love to live. You don’t only have
to love your work, the things that passed your approval, or the people close to
your heart, but you have to also love, most importantly, the unlovable. Love is
the chalk that you can use to write on anyone’s board. The darker the board
becomes the better for you to write on it.

You can’t be perfect, but you can still be good.
Don’t push too hard on perfection, but strive to be good. There’s no such thing
as a perfect thing here on earth. There’s always got to be a flaw you can find
in everything sooner or later. The almost perfect beauty of a blossomed flower is
short-lived, good looking people grow old, paradisiacal landscapes change, and
so on and so forth. It seems like everything is heading towards destruction and
decay. Life is designed for anyone to make up for what it lacks in perfection.

You don’t live forever, but you can live forever.
Life on earth is but a temporary one. You’re only here to live for several
decades. You won’t be here for long. But you can live forever though. The Holy Bible
teaches us how it is for a human being to become immortal. (John 3:16)

The way you live is the meaning to your life. Stop
searching for the meaning of life elsewhere; you won’t be able to find it that
way. Live your life the way you would like it to be--that is the meaning.

You are rich no matter what. Just because you
are not financially rich doesn’t mean you’re poor. Real poverty springs from a corruption within and
not from what one is deficient on the outside. Material wealth is temporary and
could be taken or stolen away from you any time. But the wealth that comes from
within yourself will be there for as long as you wish.

You need someone, just like everybody else. You
will always find someone who will be there for you even when sometimes you
think no one else just cared. Some of them will come in the form of disguises,
some will be just too real to deny. You need someone, he or she needs you as well.
